    Looks like Ermin's hit the most frustrating part of being an experienced sim racer coming through iRacing rookies. Coming up against drivers who have worked out how to be reasonably quick, but still don't understand how to actuall race other people properly. It's a slog but worth pushing through it.

    • @dedge12858
      @dedge12858 2 года назад +16

      Yeah but that was 2nd split and nobody in it was actually a rookie. 3 A class, 2 B and a C. The rest were Ds. Top 4 finishers all had iRating of 2K plus, including the guy who bumped Ermin.
      As a further illustration that iRating isn't everything, in a race last night I was hit from behind while in 2nd place at the same corner - but the the guy just kept his foot down until he'd looped me. Ruined my race, naturally. He had an iRating of over 2K too. TBH, I was thinking of reporting it.

    • @John-ok8ts
      @John-ok8ts 2 года назад +4

      Funny because I think it's the other way around. Once you race against real people for a while you learn not to move across them in the braking zone after leaving them a gap on the inside. Technically they may be at fault but you are still asking for trouble.

    • @mattalford3932

      That's 100% on Iracing. People have to start somewhere. The sim racing community is one of the most vial disrespectful groups in gaming.

    • @Nymblys
      @Nymblys 2 года назад +6

      Fastest way out of rookies: Skip qualifications, start from the pit, avoid everyone and just bring the car home with 0 incidents. 5-6 races max and you're out of rookies.
      In D, depending on the car class you take its a bit more of the same. D class open wheel is something else...
      Ferrari 488s are very popular in D class and I find a lot of people are carrying bad habits from rookies mixed with much more speed.
      C class is where I found the field is more in control and there is less stupid driving.
      C class Mx5 races are so much fun.

    I love this series. It has the best side by side RACING. The cars performance is a shade short and the handling is as expected at the slower speeds but rewards car control. Once you get a couple of laps in and get some separation from the slower lap time cars you can get on with it.

    Yes crash comp would be good. Looking at some of those crashes I don't think many are deliberate, obviously a few are. I drive with a Logitech Driving Force Pro, at this time I don't have funds for something better. Back in the day it was a good wheel, now it's fairly well down the list so I don't have the precise feel of a New Thrustmaster or Fanatec. It's very easy to get a slight wobble or a weave on an undulating track such as Oulton so what looks like a punterino could in fact be down to poor control due to dated equipment. And being as this is a Rookie race setting a car up does not come easily to everyone.

    So a new iracing UI is confirmed to be coming, but with kapps and racelabs doing the work for them is not a priorority.
    Also, the racelab radar doesn’t show how far away is from you, just if there’s someone by your side.
    In another note, to be fast in the mx5 you need to push the tyres more, you want to really throw the car around the corner, don’t be afraid to engage that slip point.

I always liked Assetto Corsas FFB best but I tried IRacing at a buddy´s rig and I have to say this week I will get my first subscribtions. Iracing is the first sims, apart from AC, that realistically depicts the sense of speed and the understeer feeling. The worst sim I tested so far was Assetto Corsa Competizione. The FFB give barely any usable info. And I have driven such cars in real life. They are not THAT bad in real life. Quite the opposite XD

      I do understand the radar not being a thing for realism, but I think with the number of people playing iRacing on such varied rigs/FOVs where peripheral vision might be super limited, it would be a nice option to have just to be able to keep clear of someone who is out of your line of sight. I guess we wait and see if it comes along at some point.

    This is exactly what's making me frustrated with iracing. So many drivers that are quick but don't know how to race. I try my best to avoid contact but it's so difficult to predict what the inexperienced ones are gonna do. I've been punted from the side more times than I can count because they don't realise I'm there or just don't care.

    Only issue with Oulton Park is that iRacing’s track limits are way too aggressive

    Ermine, your Odo must be running backwards, as it was showing 200 miles @13 minutes, then a lap later 150 miles.

    Definitely net code but even with perfect connection no way that guy is making that corner. I do think there was a door for a slight second that closed very quickly but with this high of split he should’ve known better. Just not a smart move 5 second penalty
